The Thing Almost No Mushroom Gummy Brand Will Tell You

Most mushroom supplements start as powder bought from a broker. Nobody asks how it got there. Ours start in our own growing rooms — because we're the ones who grow it.

Here's what almost nobody in the mushroom supplement aisle tells you: most brands don't grow a single mushroom. They buy imported powder from a broker, drop it into a gummy, and put their name on the pouch.

Ask most brands where their mushrooms were grown, or how the extract was made, and you won't get a straight answer. They can't give you one — they weren't in the room for either step. The powder showed up in a bag with a spec sheet, and that's the extent of what they know.

We do it differently, because we do it ourselves. Dirty Supplements is made by Uprooted Extracts. We grow the mushrooms. We extract them. We make the gummies. Same hands, start to finish.

1We Grow the Mushrooms Ourselves

Our family of growers has been raising mushrooms in North America for 90 years. Long before "mushroom supplement" was a category, this was already the work. That heritage is why we grow our own Lion's Mane instead of sourcing it secondhand.

Growing it ourselves means we control the one variable most brands never touch: what actually goes into the growing room. No imported biomass of unknown origin. Just mushrooms we planted, tended, and harvested.

2Then We Extract Them Ourselves

Growing the mushroom is only half the job. What happens next — extraction — is where most brands hand things off to someone else entirely. We don't. We extract our own mushrooms ourselves, using a gentle, plant-based process: no harsh solvents, no extreme temperatures, no pressure. Full-spectrum, start to finish.

Most extracts on the market are alcohol or hot-water pulls from imported powder. Ours never leaves our hands long enough for that question to come up.

3Why the Gentle Extraction Matters for Lion's Mane

Lion's Mane contains naturally occurring compounds called hericenones and erinacines — studied for their role in supporting nerve growth factor (NGF), a protein involved in maintaining healthy brain cells and neural connections. These are the delicate compounds a harsh extraction can damage or lose. Our gentle process is built to protect them, not just pull whatever's easiest.

+30% Improvement in cognitive test scores after supplementation

90 yrs Of North American mushroom-growing heritage behind the extract

Research on Lion's Mane supplementation has shown measurable results in cognitive testing. In a landmark study population, supplementation was associated with a +30% improvement in cognitive test scores after a sustained period of use.

4No Filler. No Guesswork. No Middleman.

Every focus supplement makes promises. Fewer show their work. Synergetic Focus lists every actives dose on the label — the way it should be. No proprietary blends hiding the real amounts, and no unnamed "mushroom extract" from a source we couldn't name if we tried.

Full-Spectrum Lion's Mane Mushroom Extract

Hericium erinaceus, full-spectrum extract from mushrooms we grow and extract ourselves, standardized to deliver 1,500 mg mushroom equivalent per gummy, with vitamin B3 (niacinamide). Contains naturally occurring hericenones and erinacines studied for supporting cognitive function and neural health. No synthetic stimulants. No caffeine. No artificial sweeteners or dyes. No gelatin — vegan.

5Then We Make the Gummy

Growing and extracting well doesn't matter if the last step ruins it. So we make the gummy ourselves, in-house: tart cherry, 2 g of sugar and 10 calories per gummy, nothing chalky about it. No capsules to choke down. Just one gummy, every morning.

Easy to take, easy to remember, easy to make part of your routine. Best results come with consistency — the same way the underlying biology was studied.

6Grown. Extracted. Made. Same Hands, Start to Finish.

That's the whole story. We're not a brand that discovered mushrooms on a broker's spec sheet. Dirty Supplements is made by Uprooted Extracts — we grow the mushrooms, we extract them ourselves, and we make the gummies. No handoffs. No unnamed suppliers. No guessing where it came from.

That's the difference between a supplement company and a company that's actually in the growing room.

7180-Day Guarantee. Because If It Doesn't Work, We Don't Deserve Your Money.

If you don't feel the difference — in your focus, your clarity, your afternoons — you get every penny back. No questions. No hoops. No fine print.

We can offer this because the product works, and because we'd rather lose a sale than have one more person feel like they wasted their money on another supplement that over-promised and under-delivered.

Grown, extracted, made — by the same hands, every step of the way.
